They seemed really "wild", living in the acacias well away from any contact with man, in places like the Al Gubrah bowl in the Al Hajjar Mts. They seemed to be filling the niche of Spanish & Desert Sparrows; i believe they are probably a different subspecies, hufufae. I wonder if it's possible that some migratory bactrianus also winter in Oman as well as southern Asia..<br />Cheers.ProgBirderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03974644791715369505noreply@blogger.com
